We need to associate the ap_vfio_queue, which will hold the
per queue information for interrupt with a matrix mediated device

You tried to get the q from matrix_dev->free_list thus modulo races
q->matrix_mdev should be 0. This change breaks the error codes in a
sense that it becomes impossible to provoke EADDRINUSE (the proper
error code for taken by another matrix_mdev).

It is necessary to determine if the queue is in use by another mdev, so
it will still be necessary to traverse all of the matrix_mdev structs to
see if q is in matrix_mdev->qlist. It seems that maintaining the qlist
does not buy us much.


Tony, Halil already pointed out this issue and I already answered.
Please, no need to duplicate the remarks.
